Hi Devi,

A Payroll Area is an Accounting Area where you classify your employees to get their Payroll.

Further a Payroll Area fulfills two functions that are necessary for Payroll.

These are:

-It groups together personnel numbers that are to be processed on the same day.

-It determines exact Payroll Period.

For Ex: If you want to run Payroll for Salaried employees and Industrial Workers, you define

different Payroll Areas seperately with different Pay Periods.

(Ex. One Payroll ARea for Salaried on 1st of Every month and other for Industrial workers

on 15th of every month)

And also this is very important for capturing time data with Payroll.

Hope this will give you clarity.

Regards,

Ahmed

Hi,

The most important functionality of payroll area is thru payroll control record (PA03)

This is like a switch that prevents personnel from being edited while their payroll is running, or payroll from being run while personnel are being edited. Moreover, thru control record, you can easily reach the list of personnel whose payroll will give a dump. Thus, before running payroll, you'll be able to go and correct their entries.

Control record also brings the idea of periodicity. That is, payroll can only be run in one month for a specific time and payroll related data can only be edited for the period record is set.
